texte = #1: I think this is one we could not reproduce, but we will take another look. #2: We have made a few changes to the sitebuilder templates. It's possible this has been addressed. To be honest though, I am more focused on fixing WebDNA engine issues, than with SiteBuilder. #3: This has been addressed, and is included in the list of bug fixes. #4: The pre/post-parse scripts can be a powerful tool, and one must be very careful when editing those files. I believe the documentation (or the WebDNA lab tutorial) warns about the possibility of crippling all WebDNA pages, if bad code is placed in those scripts. But if you have found that valid code, used in either script file, causes problems, please send me a copy of that code. Thanks. -----Original Message----- From: WebDNA Talk [mailto:WebDNA-Talk@talk.smithmicro.com]On Behalf Of Donovan Brooke Sent: Thursday, July 28, 2005 11:55 AM To: WebDNA Talk Subject: Re: SMSI (Scott) clues??

TO > "" > > Donovan ----- #2 (sitebuilder) ----- Hello, I have, for example, the "directory" marked as only accessible by certain groups. However, if I do a search in the field provided, when *not* logged in as a allowed user of the directory information, I can gain access to that information. Right now, the only way I can see to not get access to that information is to mark the entire directory as not searchable by anyone. This works to protect that info but takes away the searchable feature for the allowed user. Donovan <== related ==> Hello, When using the FAQ pages, when you specify a FAQ record to be of a certain access level (admin etc..) it works on the opening pages...meaning, admin onler, when you click to the detail of any FAQ and hit the "NEXT" or "PREVIOUS" form submits, all FAQ's are displayed. I am guessing this same BUG is apparent in all of the same type of pages that work in this manner... though I have not test it. Donovan ----- #3 ----- Through a bit of trial and tribulation I isolated a bug in WebDNA 6 (OSX at least)... If you define a function inside a SCOPE context, and the function uses a RETURN context, then calling that function will cause WebDNA to never return from the function call.. Example: [scope name=dummy] [function name=CallMe] [return]555-1212[/return] [/function] [CallMe] [/scope] If the function is defined outside of the scope, or the return context is not used inside the function, then the code works fine. - Brian ----- #4 ----- If you enable the preparse script and edit it.. you are running the risk of causing errors to all the sites in that sandbox even when using valid code... However, if you put that same code into an include file within the functiondefs directory (within globals), then the code and sites work as they should. Scott, if you need an example function to test the error with, I may be able to help you here. ------ thats all for now. Donovan -- =o=o=o=o=o=o=o=o=o=o=o=o=o=o=o=o=o=o=o=o=o=o=o=o=o DONOVAN D.
